บท 16: Live News, Raul's Massive Embarrassment!

บรรณาธิการ: Atlas Studios

Regarding the news of being bewitched by Raul, hoarding purslane and causing the destruction of countless families, it was the fastest news that reached the headlines and became the hot search of all major platforms.

Countless people looked at the tragic scene in the photo and cursed Raul with all the profanities they knew.

In order to capture more attention, many news agencies sent reporters to do a live interview.

The originally quiet town quickly became lively.

Numerous news vehicles with various equipment drove in.

The Soro Times was the largest local newspaper.

They had offline physical newspapers, online news channels, websites, and other platforms.

It was a newspaper agency that was too aggressive.

Their news reports were also known for viciousness, but it was loved by the locals.

This time, the editor-in-chief of the Soro Times caught the hot topic and sent people into the district as quickly as possible to begin the investigation.

The person holding the microphone was a beautiful woman.

She was wearing a black one-piece outfit.

Her huge assets were contained in the soft one-piece dress but it seemed like they would burst out at any moment.

Her round butt was even more perfect than a peach, and even her clothes could not contain this kind of beauty, causing the dress on the lower part of her body to be stretched wide.

Especially that pair of beautiful legs, those black high heels, and those exquisite stockings, it made one's imagination run wild.

The woman was extremely beautiful, no less than any popular celebrity.

All the roads she had taken had countless men intoxicated, even countless women praised her.

The staff member carrying the huge camera looked at the beautiful figure in front of him and could not help but praise his superior's intelligence.

Such a top-grade beauty would receive the greatest support no matter what she did.

Because no one could bear to reject her.

The emcee walked leisurely on the other end and gave a detailed introduction to the camera.

"Everyone, let me introduce this remote district to you today. We'll see how much disaster the hypocritical Raul has brought to this poor place."

Soon, the host found a local.

The host pointed the microphone at the person and said, "Hello, I'm Nina, the host of the Soro Times. I would like to interview you about Raul and the purslane. Is it convenient for you to talk?"

After saying that, Nina smiled flirtatiously.

Her beautiful face was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly shocking everyone's inner peace.

The person being interviewed was stunned at first. When he saw the person interviewing him, he went into a daze for a moment. Then, he looked from top to bottom. Finally, he could not help but swallow his saliva, the desire in his eyes could not be hidden.

"Are you free to talk?" Nina asked again. She did not mind the man looking at her like that, because that was her advantage.

She had a little secret. She loved to see the look of trepidation on men's faces when they wanted her.

At the thought of this, she played with her hair casually. The fragrance wafted through the air, stirring up the hearts of countless people.

The person was stunned for a moment before he smiled awkwardly, "Of course, of course."

The man's eyes changed when Nina mentioned Raul.

Full of anger, he said, "That person is really a hypocrite. He paid a high price to make us stock up a large amount of purslane. I didn't expect him to run away when it was time to pay us!"

"So how much did you stock up?" Nina asked, feeling sorry for him.

For some reason, although that person hated Raul to the core, when he saw the beauty in front of him and her concerned voice, he could not get angry.

He suppressed the weird feeling in his heart and shook his head before saying, "A lot. I stocked up for two days and spent a total of $100,000. For this, I sold my house and car."

With that, he could not help but sigh, his eyes filled with anger and helplessness.

"Oh goodness, so much?" Nina exclaimed.

100,000 US dollars in this era was a huge amount.

After all, an iPhone was only $200-$300.

A typical household would have a net income of 5,000 US dollars a year.

However, the person in front of her had invested so much, it was no wonder Nina was so surprised.

That person sighed and said, "Sigh, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have trusted Raul and insisted on buying the purslane. Now that Raul has been arrested, the remaining vegetables are doomed. I can only watch as they rot."

The man burst into tears after saying this.

Nina sighed and whispered a few words of comfort. She made another summary on TV and began interviewing the next person.

When a middle-aged man saw Nina interviewing him, he hurriedly walked up and said, "Miss Nina, I have a scoop. I know why Raul did this."

The man's words quickly piqued Nina's interest.

Nina pointed the microphone at him and asked, "Sir, can you tell us what you know? I believe everyone has the right to know the truth."

The person nodded and said slowly, "Miss Nina, do you know who started to collect the purslane here?"

"Not Raul?" Nina asked: "A lot of people say that it's him."

The man shook his head. "No, it's not him. It's Shawn!"

"Shawn?" Nina asked curiously. It was the first time she had heard that name.

"Yes, it's Shawn, a university student. He was the first one to purchase the purslane here," the man continued.

"So why did he stop buying?" Nina asked.

The man continued: "Because of Raul, Shawn's purchase price is $1 per kilogram, while Raul offered $3."

"Why is there such a huge difference?" Nina was puzzled. According to her information, $1 was the normal price, $3 was a bit too much.

In fact, most places could not even afford to pay $1.

The man nodded and continued, "To talk about this story, I have to start with Shawn…"

The man told them about Shawn's purchase of purslane and how he had sold it to the businessman in town.

It was very detailed.

After Nina heard that, she frowned and asked: "Are you saying that Raul bought the purslane for $3 to force Shawn out of business so that he can gain a monopoly here?"

"That's right. It's not a secret. Almost everyone knows about it," the person explained.

After hearing this person's explanation, Nina could not help but sigh.

She had originally thought that this was just a scam.

She did not expect the reason behind it to be so complicated.

In the end, it was still greed.

Be it was Raul or the residents here.

At that thought, Nina could not help but ask, "Why don't you guys go to Shawn? He has access to his own channels. He should be able to solve your problem. He's promised to buy it for $1 after all."

Hearing Nina's words, the man smiled bitterly and said, "This is also why I'm looking for you. We've offended Shawn badly. I hope you can help us."

บท 17: A Terrifying Guess, This Shawn Is Not Simple!

บรรณาธิการ: Atlas Studios

Under the man's pleas and many similar requests, Nina reluctantly agreed.

She was also very curious about Shawn, because according to them, Shawn had started collecting the purslane before the New York Times published any news about them.

As an ordinary university student, why did he have such foresight?

Nina acutely caught the whiff of an explosive news.

Therefore, she was prepared to chase after him.

At this moment, the viewers watching the live broadcast were also arguing with each other.

"God, I didn't think that was the reason. I don't know if I should sympathize with these people anymore."

"That's right. They're all greedy, especially Raul. Why go to this extent?"

"I'm sure he's blinded by money. He doesn't know the initiative is in Shawn's hands. If it were me, I wouldn't want Raul to get his way even if I stopped doing this business."

"Maybe there's more to it than meets the eye? The guy just said that Raul was helping Shawn collect it, but Shawn didn't agree to buy them."

"That's right. He's selling it for $7. Why wouldn't he be willing to give the residents of the district more profits?"

"Humph. Come on. You guys are so saintly. The Holy Church in Paris needs you."

"That's right. Purslane isn't worth much to begin with. It's already kind of him to spend $1 on buying it. You have to know that we are selling it for $0.20 per kilogram here!"

"Yes, the locals are too greedy. I support Shawn!"

...

On the other side of the camera, two sides of a long table were filled with people.

Some of them were very young. They looked elegant, handsome, and rich. Some of them were old, but their eyes were exceptionally shrewd. There were also middle-aged men who wore gold-framed glasses and looked to be of high status.

At this moment, none of them said anything as they stared at the television.

After the interview, someone could not help but ask: "Everyone, don't you think Shawn is very interesting?"

Everyone had different reactions.

"Interesting indeed. But here comes the question, how did he know about the purslane?"

An old man looked at the people below with a playful look.

It was as if he wanted to know everyone's deepest secret through their expressions.

"According to our sources, several hours after the New York Times was published, a large quantity of purslane suddenly appeared in New York City."

"That's right. At that time, we had not even dumped our purslane yet, but its price in the market had already been increasing. Because of that batch of purslane, the price suffered a blow, and it didn't meet our expectations."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone fell silent.

It was as if everyone was thinking about the reason for this.

After a while, the old man sitting at the head of the table asked, "Have you found out who it is?"

"Got it. A guy named Jeffrey. According to our intel, it looks like Jeffrey got the goods from this kid. But the price…"

The old man asked again: "How many?"

"$7 per kilogram."

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air after hearing this.

This price proved too many problems.

First of all, purslane was a type of weed that even pigs or cows did not eat.

Almost all of them were thrown away as trash.

However, Shawn was the first to make a move. He collected a large amount of purslane and sold them at a terrifying price of $7.

This showed a huge problem.

If it was an ordinary person, they would not have known that the New York Times would spread rumors. How could they have acted in advance?

From another perspective, even if he knew, he would not sell it at this price.

One had to know that even these big shots could not perfectly control the price trend.

This was despite the fact that they were behind the scene manipulating the situation, they had gone to great lengths to set high prices.

Then, who was this Shawn?

Seeing that no one spoke, a middle-aged man said, "According to our investigation, there is something very wrong with this Jeffrey. He first used 100,000 kilograms of purslane to instantly stop the price of the purslane from rising."

"Later, when the market was starting to reach the peak, and we were ready to make a move, once again, this Jeffrey moved ahead of us. He packaged the purslane very well and made it a health symbol. Once again, his purslane became the most popular celebrity product on the market."

"If it weren't for his lack of stock, I'm afraid he would be the real powerhouse in New York City!"

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, everyone present felt a chill down their spines.

Everyone was in disbelief.

They had invested tens of millions of USD in this.

This was only the early stages of the project. The investment would be even greater in the later stages.

But suddenly, there was this person who was one step ahead of them in everything and almost kicked them out of the game.

Damn it!

Everyone felt a sense of relief.

If they were really kicked out of the game, money was a small issue, but the key was the embarrassment they would suffer!

"Have you looked into this Jeffrey? What's his background? Could he be behind all this?" The old man sitting at the head of the table asked.

"I've checked. This Jeffrey's brother-in-law is editor-in-chief of the New York Times. He'll be able to get access to news about purslane, but he only knows about the information, not the plans behind the scenes."

"Furthermore, according to our investigation, Jeffrey did investigate the matter of the purslane. Because we kept it well under wraps, he didn't get enough information, like the price, the trend, and so on. Logically, a businessman wouldn't spend $7 on something without knowing the details."

"Unless…"

The old man sitting at the head of the table looked at the report and said, "Tell us your guess."

"According to our investigation, Jeffrey is not the mastermind, Shawn is!"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this news.

They picked up the documents in their hands and took a closer look.

Shawn, an ordinary university graduate, had just started an internship.

He had no background, was from an ordinary family, and did not have any business activity that was out of the norm for his identity.

The information was very simple, extremely simple. It was the general information of almost all people at this age.

But it was this simple information that made them feel fear.

One must know that this ordinary university student had almost kicked out these masterminds behind the scenes!

Seeing that there was no other comments, the elderly man said: "Keep a close eye on this Shawn. I want to know what he plans to do next!"

After the elderly man gave the order, the massive scheme began to operate, and a plan involving Shawn slowly unfolded.
